A 54-year-old female from Hyderabad, Mrs. F. U (PIN: 33389) started online treatment from Life Force Homeopathy on 1st September 2017 for her complaint of Trigeminal Neuralgia.
She was suffering from Trigeminal neuralgia for 6 years. She was experiencing extremely severe and intense pain on the left side of her face. For many years, it was misdiagnosed as tooth pain and her tooth extraction was also done, however, there was no relief in her pain. After 2-3 years, it was diagnosed as trigeminal neuralgia. It used to affect her 2-3 times a day. The duration of her pain was around one to two hours, and the intensity of her pain was very severe. She was experiencing pain while talking, eating, drinking, etc. She was not able to do anything during the pain episode. She had to take conventional medicines around 900mg dose daily to control the pain.
She had an average appetite. She had no specific desires with regards to eating any food or drinking fluids. She preferred to eat non-vegetarian food in her diet. Her thirst was average. She had normal and refreshing sleep.
The patient was a housewife. She used to stay with her husband and one son. She was stressed about her illness as her health and relief from the pain was not getting better.
She never had any other major illnesses in the past. Also, there were no major illnesses noted in her family’s medical history.
After studying the case in detail, Dr. Shah prescribed her some research-based homeopathic medicines.
Follow-Ups:
On 3rd April 2018, the patient reported around 15%-20% improvement in her relief. The frequency of her pain was as it is, but the duration of pain had reduced. The pain used to occur for around 30 minutes now, that was initially used to affect for 1 to 2 hours. The intensity of her pain was less than before. She had gradually reduced her conventional medicine dosage. In spite of reducing the conventional medicine dose, her pain was not severe. She was overall stable with the medicines.
On 3rd November 2018, the patient updated the feedback mentioning that she was almost 50%-60% better. The pain was not present anymore. She had experienced no episodes of the pain in the last month. The dose of her conventional medicines was reduced further. She feared to experience the pain again, so, even though she was not experiencing any pain, she was continuing with conventional medicines in small doses. The patient was quite happy with the progress and relief.
On 11th July 2019, the patient reported being completely better. The pain was no more affecting her from the past 8-9 months. She was perfectly fine now. She had stopped taking conventional medicine from the past 2 months. Even after completely stopping the conventional medicines, there was no episode of pain experienced by her. The patient was very happy with the results. She was fine now.
She thanked Dr. Shah and the whole Life Force team for treating her for such a painful condition and improving her relief.
